Team New Zealand made it to the semi-finals of the Women’s America’s Cup in Barcelona but missed out on advancing to the final.
Italy’s Luna Rossa and Britain’s Athena Pathway qualified for the one-race final, which happened on Sunday morning.
Earlier in the day, the race schedule had to be shortened due to low winds, forcing Team New Zealand into a must-win situation against Switzerland’s Alinghi. Despite a rough start and the race being paused, the Kiwis came back strong in the restart, securing a second-place finish and a points tie. This allowed them to move on to the semi-finals after winning on a tie-breaker.
However, in the semi-final series, Team New Zealand placed fifth, with a key penalty for blocking Team Barcelona impacting their performance. The final of the Women’s America’s Cup is set for Sunday, alongside the men’s America’s Cup challenge between Britain and defending champions New Zealand.
very interesting
I loved reading it because, I never knew that maybe chocolate might be gone in the future!
save the chocolate…
I enjoyed this reading because
it show what climate changes does!!
they might have to move most chocolate into a colder place, since the climate clock is getting low
so temperature might get higher.
i love chocolate
I’m allergic to dairy, but this makes me sad for my best friends all around NZ (don’t think it’s weird because I actually do). And my chocolate loving cousin, her name is Dana (I’m from South Korea and she told me how to spell her name in Korean but its not pronounced like Dana).
I know that there are chocolate lovers around the world so, poor them or if you like chocolate poor you (even though I’m allergic to dairy, or to make it easy dairy products: cheese, milk, butter etc).
